New E-Book: 172 Forgotten British Children's TV Shows From The 1980s

Yes, I have a new e-book out: 172 Forgotten British Children's TV Shows From The 1980s.

As you can probably guess from the title, it's an almost-encyclopaedic look at forgotten British children's television from the 1980s. We all remember Pigeon Street, Saturday Superstore, Dangermouse, The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, and they're still discussed today whenever someone of that generation gets a little nostalgic. But there was so much else being broadcast - some of it was amazing, some completely baffling and some of it was truly abysmal. Most importantly, however, it was broadcast. This means it's part of our televisual history and should be preserved.

It's based on an article I wrote several years ago, but I was never entirely happy with it. Entries were rushed, some of the writing was sloppy and, after writing it, I discovered several more intriguing programmes worth of being included. Therefore, I went through it with a fine toothcomb, tightened things up, added additional trivia in, corrected some rather glaring mistakes and topped it up with more shows. The result, if I must say so, is an intriguing time capsule of British television which is rarely discussed.

It's available on Amazon for a launch price of £2.99, so to find out more, just click here.
